1.1 Introduction
Communication style is the pattern utilized by Basic Science students in exchanging and sharing of information among colleagues. Effective communicators respect diverse viewpoints, talk or write clearly, and listen intently. Basic Science has become such an indispensable tool that no nation, developed, undeveloped or developing, wishing to progress in the socio-economic sphere will afford to relegate its learning in schools.
